[quote=Anonymous]My DS applied to college last year after graduating from a public HS so I understand.  There is a lot of information about college admissions on YouTube, although much of it is geared towards high achieving kids, so I would start there before getting a college counselor.

Search for Lisa McLaughlin (goes beyond high achievers)

Ivy Admissions Help (high achievers but not just Ivys and overall guidance in a matter of fact way, with interesting 8:00 videos about the unique features of about 20 highly ranked schools)

College Meister (similar to Ivy Admissions Help
Help)

ElvatED School (some interesting perspectives on how to tailor applications and essays to specific top rated schools)

Of course, you have to filter what they say and decide how much, if any, is helpful.

Given that my DS wasn’t applying to a Top 20 other than a UC, I didn’t need a consultant as my DS could write fairly well.  But even if you do need one, these videos may help you understand the services you need.
